re: Nitrogen in tires?

One thing I do notice, since Costco put N2 in my tires. It seems like my low tire pressure light has never come on once in the two years I have had these tires, and when I check I always have 29/32 or within 5% (mfg spec)

Yep, that's EXACTLY what I meant. And you read it that way too.

This is a pretty big scam...snake oil like.

Also, 100scf of nitrogen costs about $1.50-$2.00 in cylinder bottles. I assume you don't use even a 10th of that filling 4 tires. It really should cost you pennies yet isn't it around $50 or so for nitrogen tires?? Rip off

ETA- So i see someone calculated 36 cubic feet for 4 tires. It costs the dealership/tire company less than a dollar to fill all 4 tires.

I also don't worry about the winter cold or summer heat affecting the pressure and needing to adjust it.

This is BS.
